I have Ubuntu 9.04 with ltsp and works great. I tried with all other versions of Ubuntu 9.10-11.04 but always I have the same problem. Instalation goes well but when I try to boot client its stops after loading kernel image. I think when he tryst to go to graphic mode. Help please! Its the same setting as in 9.04 but just dont work !

what are the steps you used to install? there's not enough information in what' youve mentioned to even guess what's going on

I have the opposite experience, following these install instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPQuickInstall

not so much a question of bloat as how much get rendered in software over the network

all but one of these people will be likely new to linux

if you use the compiz window manager you get great performance since your windows just become vectors that are sent over the network. with kwin it becomes lots and lots of images and can become quite slow

compiz on a thin client!?

16:24

it will work?

16:25

ill worry about bells and whistles later

16:25

what about gnome?

16:25

<highvoltage>

yep, usually compiz + gnome is a good combination

16:25

<dubkat>

intresting

16:26

(i hate kde's effects, compiz is so much smoother)

which sadly, is currently broken on my desktop

16:31

just to make sure i'm not making a mistake here

16:32

dispite the fact i'm installing this on a server, i want the DESKTOP version, correct?

16:33

<vagrantc>

correct

16:33

it is essentially a desktop server.

16:34

<dubkat>

ok

16:34

<vagrantc>

the service it provides is desktops, so you need all the desktop software
